I wish it did go that way...

We exchanged 3 Taliban bad guys for these two.

That's OK, now we can blow them up.

sorry for the hi-level info
This is huge news, yet it went where elephants go to die.

looks like we got these two back for 3 taliban bad guys plus a taliban promise to release 10 Afghan prisoners.

I didn't know the taliban had a political arm.

and check this out:

Pompeo’s statement also commended Afghanistan’s opposition politicians who set aside their differences long enough to allow the exchange to happen and “did not use these humanitarian gestures for personal political gain.

Pres. Trump could possibly reach peace in Afghanistan ?
